Investor Sentiment

Explains how the new highs/new lows indicator measures market breadth by tracking participation across stocks. Covers net new highs, moving averages, divergences, and breadth thrusts to help investors assess trend strength, identify turning points, and avoid misleading signals from index-driven market movements.

How have you used net new highs/lows breadth trends, 10-day moving averages, and cumulative high/low lines alongside macro trends and sector rotation to identify potential market regime shifts and what has been most effective (or misleading) in your experience?

How can experienced investors use tea leaves and thrown animal bones to identify early-stage market regime shifts rather than short-term noise? 🙄

Just use a crystal ball and burn some incense. You'll come out better with that. 

Seriously, where are all the billionaires who have used the techniques mentioned in the original post above to make their money? I humbly suggest that wasting time with such constructs is more likely to diminish your long-term returns than enhance them. Buying and holding good equities for a very long time is a much better strategy than trying to time the market.

There are no "signals" that can consistently and reliably predict what the market is going to do tomorrow, next week, next month, next year, or next decade. 

Just my humble opinion.
